Quorum Sensing and Phytochemicals [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2013
Most infectious diseases are caused by bacteria, which proliferate within quorum sensing (QS)-mediated biofilms. Efforts to block QS in bacteria and disrupt biofilms have enabled the identification of bioactive molecules that are also produced by plants.

Emerging evidence-based innovative approaches to control catheter-associated urinary tract infection: a review

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2023
Healthcare settings have dramatically advanced the latest medical devices, such as urinary catheters (UC) for infection, prevention, and control (IPC). The continuous or intermittent flow of a warm and conducive (urine) medium in the medical device, the ...

Polymer based dual drug delivery system for targeted treatment of fluoroquinolone resistant Staphylococcus aureus mediated infections

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
The present study attempts to treat S. aureus-induced soft skin infections using a combinatorial therapy with an antibiotic, Ciprofloxacin (CIP), and an efflux pump inhibitor 5-Nitro-2-(3-phenylpropoxy) pyridine (5-NPPP) through a smart hydrogel delivery

The Molecular Architecture of Pseudomonas aeruginosa Quorum-Sensing Inhibitors

open access: yesMarine Drugs, 2022
The survival selection pressure caused by antibiotic-mediated bactericidal and bacteriostatic activity is one of the important inducements for bacteria to develop drug resistance.

Quorum Sensing

open access: yes, 2022
Quorum Sensing is a gastrosonic experience for three guests. A soup is served in a glass tableware designed from an experiment of associations of shapes and materials with musical emotions. The actions of each diner produce vibrations applied to the body of the others.

Short-range quorum sensing controls horizontal gene transfer at micron scale in bacterial communities

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
In bacterial communities, cells often communicate by the release and detection of small diffusible molecules, a process termed quorum-sensing. Signal molecules are thought to broadly diffuse in space; however, they often regulate traits such as ...

Screening and quantification of anti-quorum sensing and antibiofilm activity of Actinomycetes isolates against food spoilage biofilm-forming bacteria

open access: yesBMC Microbiology, 2021
Biofilms can form in many industries, one of them is the food industry. The formation of biofilms in this industry could cause immense economic losses and endanger public health. Biofilms formation is mainly triggered by quorum sensing.

Development of a smart pH-responsive nano-polymer drug, 2-methoxy-4-vinylphenol conjugate against the intestinal pathogen, Vibrio cholerae

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Vibrio cholerae causes cholera, an acute diarrhoeal disease. The virulence in V. cholerae is regulated by the quorum-sensing mechanism and response regulator LuxO positively regulates the expression of virulence determinants adhesion, biofilm formation ...

Exploration of Anti-infectives From Mangrove-Derived Micromonospora sp. RMA46 to Combat Vibrio cholerae Pathogenesis

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Vibrio cholerae, the etiological agent of cholera, employs quorum sensing (QS) pathways to control the expression of virulence factors, including the production of cholera toxin and biofilm formation. Acquired antibiotic resistance in V.

Mucin O-glycans suppress quorum sensing pathways and genetic transformation in Streptococcus mutans

open access: yesNature Microbiology, 2021
Mucus barriers accommodate trillions of microorganisms throughout the human body while preventing pathogenic colonization1. In the oral cavity, saliva containing the mucins MUC5B and MUC7 forms a pellicle that coats the soft tissue and teeth to prevent ...
